>when we first started out in this hobby (a very long time ago), there was a small piece of art in the lower right-hand corner of a WD page. it was a gestating genestealer, done in purples, pinks, and blues. i THINK that was the only place the pic appeared (altho it MAY have put in an appearrance in the original nid codex). it was painted by whoever the guy was that also designed all the old, iconic symbol-type art back in the day (ie: the crux terminatus, the Adeptus Mechanicus icon, etc.) i have been searching the interweb for that tiny piece of art for about 3 days now, and i can't locate it. can any of you help? you might remember me painting it on a skateboard back when i lived in Maple Park. if anyone has that WD issue (it's a very old one), and can locate it, could you scan it and send it to me, or post it in a thread in the painting/modelling section? any help would be appreciated. even if you only happen to know that long-forgotten artist's name, it would be a place to start.<

I have a lot of White Dwarfs from back then, but I am not searching through all of them.
Narrow it down a little, please.

>well, as for that, the best i can do is narrow it to the time period when almost ALL the art they used in the WD's and codexes was either Jon Blanche or that guy. he did almost ALL the art in the old Wargear book (remember that?). actually, if you happen to still HAVE that (probably valuable) little gem of a book, his name is probably credited in there somewhere. for some reason, i'm thinking it MIGHT have been the old WD with the original Angels of Death codex on the cover. or possibly the Digganob (Gorkamorka) cover. somewhere amongst those issues. it was out shortly before i moved to Maple Park, which would put it at between '96 and 97', i'm thinking. thanks, brudda! do you remember the piece i'm talking about?<

>check for your name in the m&p section for another example of the artist. just his name alone would help me narrow my search parameters.<

>general>genestealer fetus.< I think this post points out 3 message-etiquette guidelines you may want to follow in the future: 1. Don't start a new Thread for a subject which already has a Thread. 2. Make your Thread Title clear as to what the subject is. 3. Adding useless punctuation for "style" is VERY confusing (I had to reread the above post three times before I understood what you were saying). |
